REAL ESTATE ASSESSMENTS.

Assessor Fish's recommendations to
the Commissioners on the subject of
assessing real estate for taxation are
very timely, and the Commissioners
could hardly do better thing for the
citizens of the District than to give this
matter their immediate attention. This
they will probably do, because they are
aware of the many defects and abuses
of the present system.
Mr.. Fish infers that temporary po.
sitlon of few weeks at poor salary,
is not calculated to attract men of suf.
ficient ability to assess the high aud
more valuable grades of real estate
in this District. lie advocates the per.
manent employment of responsible
men at adequate compensations.
The present assessments are absurd,
and hardship to the poor man who
owns little home, while they are a
bonanza to the rich, Almost any man
can estimate what q small house Is
worth or what Il building lot is wurJn
per foot in a poor neighborhood, bur
when 1t comes to F street property,
where the market price is $40 or $50 =
foot, the District assessors appear t,
have struck problem that hey could
not solve. The assessors books to-day
contain assessments Of SO no against
lots that are sold at $40 per foot.
The question of assessing real estate
Is one of the most important thut the
authorities have to deal with, inqs.
much Ss It furnishes almost the entire
revenue Of the District, aud hesilr II
